The Blinky Morgan Trial,

CLEVELAND, o., October 3I.-The testi-
mony in the case of "Blinky' Morgao on
trial at Ravenna for the murder of Detect
i've Hulligan, was in when the court ad-
journed to-day, and argument will begin
to.morrw morning. A genuine sensation
wss produced this afternoon when the
prosecutor called for Mrs Ann Smyth, of
Allegheny City, in rebuttal. 1t was to
Mrs. Smyth's house that the stolen furs
were taken, and in her testimony last
week for the defense she swore that she
could not identify either OF the prisoners
as the man who rented her room or came
to her house. When called to-day she
said that James Robinson, one OF the
prisoners, was at her house the same day
that McMann was arrested for the fur rob-
berry; that Robinson asked for the other
map. She said that she discovered after
she had testified last week that she had
made a mistake. She had only seen Rob-
inson in Jail where the light was poor.
When Robinson was brought into court,
however, after she had left the witness
stand, she recognized him. Mrs. Smyth
made the correction in her testimony vol
UNFAIRLY. The defense cross examined her
closely, but could not shake her. A few
other unimportant witnesses were exam
med and the court adjourned.

A Tronblesome Land Grant.

WASHINGTON, October Sl.-The Com
missioner of the General Land Office has
made report to the Secretary of the In
terror upon the status of the New York
Indian lands in Kansas, in which he holds
that these lands were reserved by treaty
stipulation, and the reservation has never
been lawfully extipguished. The lands
were offered for sale by President Buchanan
in August, 1850, and the Commissioner
holds that whatever rights settlers and
purchasers may have acquired thereby,
none of the lands could be granted to the
railroad companies which have received
patents thers for. He recommends that
suits be instituted to set aside these
patents. The quantities of lands embraced
in this reservation which the commits
sioner holds have been unlawfully
patented to the railroad companies are as
follows: Missouri, Kansas and Texas Rail-
road Co., 1S2, 348 acres; ieavenworth,
Lawrence and Galveston, 42 $50 acres
Missouri River, Fort Scott and Gulf, 227
acres. The first two named roads jointly
1897 acres, or about 226. $50 acres in all.

Admiral Porter'sReport.

WASHINGTON, October 3l.-Admiral Por-
ter has made his annual report to the Sec
retary of the Navy. In considering the
question of coast defences, the admiral
states the following harbors are entirely de-
fenseless sgain st single iron clad: New
York, Boston, San Francisco, Lake Ports;
Hampton Roads, Norfolk, New Orleans,
Philadelphia. Washington, Baltimore
Portland, Maine; Rhode Island ports, Key
West, Charleston, Mobile, Savannah, Gal
vestion, Pensacola, Wilmington, n. c.;
San Diego, CAL. Portsmouth, n. H.; to
say nothing of many other places of i'm
portance. The heavy iron-clads could
commence at the Eastern most point, and
proceed along the coast to Texas, having
them all under contribution. In time of
war, says the Admiral, the torpedo system
will be useless for defence in the absence
of proper fertilization and guns. For the
event Of war, We are no more prepared
than we were year ago. although we have
made beginning to repair simply the
waste in our navy for the past twenty-five
years. In the opinion OF the admiral, the
first step toward the protection of the
coast should be the construction of a
squadron of heavy lron.clsds. The ad-
miral argues at length in favor of SUBJ
sides for shipping, and points to the sue
cess of the system IN England, Germany
and France.

Grinnell and others connected
with the famous trial, SAYS this
same authority, have been daily deluged
with missives of this kind. While the
officials themselves paw little head to this
cowardly form of attack, their wives have
been made to suffer for them. Especially
is this the case with Mrs. Grinnell, due to
the receipt OF letters in which the writers
threaten in the event of nothing being &C.
complished to save the necks of the seven
men, to kidnsp her children. In conse-
quence, she suffers mental torment when
they are out of her sight, fearful that the
threats will be car ried out.
The police watch In the neighborhood OF
Judge Gary and Mr.. Grinnen has been
considerably strengthened, which, while
adding some sense OF security to the
vicinity, nevertheless keeps the possible
results of an attack on the houses of the
two officials fresh in the minds of the res
idents. Judge Gary himself treats the let
ters with contempt, characteristic OF tine

OF duties with undiminished calm. De.

public utterance he ever made touching

tinuously, and at the same time satisfy the

voting for him on that issue, is clearly en-
titled to the Democratic nomination" He
said that the way he would deal with the
surplus would be to spend it. He was
asked if Mr.. Blaine would be the Republi-
candidate, and said: my answer is, he
will be il he desires to be-"

Here the Senator hesitated for moment

CROSS EYES,
THEIR CAUSE AND CURE,
DR.. A. B. Barker, Oculist & Aurist.

Beautiful eyes are an ornament to the eouute-
nance; and any defOrmity, no matter how slight
not only mars. but makes lasting impression
individual. The remarks of the rude and
IhOughtless are among the earliest and most
painful reeolleetions OF these unfortunates. In
1--WE that the mention OF cross eyes TO them is a.
most torture. Nor is The appearance alone con-
eerned in this defect, but the functions OF the
- nearly blind and the other weak. A cure,
then. Involves restoration Of sight, ss well as
personal appearance.
KINDS AND CAUSES
There are seven kinds OF cross eyes, which
may be produced from various causes, among
the most common are children initiating those
whose eyes are turned. looking at the
nose paralysis OF an ocular muscle, sore eyes
badly treated, measles, tegers, whooping cough,
testhing, worms. stys. injury, ne6r-sight. over
sight, etc, etc or they may be congenitsl, from
birth.
BEST TINE To BE CURED.
Cross eyes can be cured at any age, but the
Improvement in sigh is not so great In middle
are as In youth. Children born with this de-
foTmity should be treated as soon after denti.
tion possible. In youth, the squint is not
fully misunderstanding but one eye is at fault
-6lnoculsr vision is more easily established,
the measuring power OF distances and dlmen-
sions is not destroyed, besides the tendency 10
O6viated, and the impediment 10 proper educa-
lion, the want OF vision, is removed by curing
THE TREATMENT.
The theory Of curing cross eyes as taught in the
schools and praetised by OculistS generally is the
same throughout the country. but few oculists
are able TO me asure the degree and direction of
the squint, hence il is that they cut and try, -
and the attempt TO cure often proves futile,
without q second or third operation, which, il
anything, is more complicated than the first.
We wish TO call attention to our
NEW AND PAINLESS METHOD,
Of treating this deformity. Il is done at onesit-
ting, in minute or two, and requires con-
hnement, bandging or after treatment. The pa
tient can return home az once positively cured.

age oculist in a year As evidence of our success
